Hi Michele, Love the idea here for this tea, from the invitations to the party crackers. The food looks delicious. I'm sure you and all the guests had a great time. Love the cut little aprons and I enjoyed the tour of the home and decorations. Thanks for sharing.

This sounds like it was an incredible way to kick off the holiday season. The decorations are beautiful, as is the set table. The food looks outstanding...I love seeing a menu, very classic. Hooray for you on winning the candle. I love those and have a hard time finding them. Thanks for a wonderful treat, Michele!

Oh Michele, I'm drooling with tea party envy! Oh to be invited to such a wonderful, seasonal event!! The home is lovey, the menu and food is fabulous. Then to top it off, all the party favors. You're one lucky gal to have such a great group of friends.

Hello Michele, it is lovely to stop by and visit you once again. What an incredible party you attended! I have never been to anything like that. Your hosts were very generous as well as kind. They really did pay attention to detail and everything. You must feel so pampered! Perfect!Hugs and Happy Holidays,Terri

What an incredible time you had...I just LOVE teas...and this one sounds so special. Glad you had such a nice time....We always had the same problem when Mr. Sweet and I married...having to be at 2 Christmas luncheons...it was so so hard. When our kids got married, I changed our time with them to Christmas Eve...it has worked so much better for them and their family. Now they spend CEve with us, a dinner, gifts and stockings...then, on CDay, they are free to take their time in getting to a lunch with the other set of family. Perfect....We get up early on Christmas morning and visit ea set of kids and family..have a breakfast with one set, cinnamon rolls at the other. Then, the Mr. and I either spend the rest of the day with his cousins or with friends. Works like a charm for us....

What a yummy and fun tea party!! I'm so inspired!! Everything looks so delicious - it's making me very hungry right now!! I love the little turkey salad tarts topped with pomegranate seeds!! So festive!! And the maid's costumes - adorable!! Thanks so much for your visit to my blog, and thanks for sharing this wonderful tea party!! xo! Jina

Wow, what a labor of love by those two talented and generous ladies! They sure spoiled you all with all that wonderful food and beautiful decor. Loved seeing all of it, and all the incredible attention to detail.

Goodness Michele, I almost missed this post. Such fun, good food and I'll bet there was lively conversation.You have thoughtful and imaginative friends to throw a Christmas tea party as wonderful as this.

What a fabulous tea Michele! The food looks delicious and the snow globe dessert was amazing! Her home is beautiful! Love the icicles hanging from her mantle. I also loved your little lamb and star in the previous post. Big Christmas hugs!Jann

Wow, this Christmas tea party is stunning. Look at the décor, it is superb! I would feel so special if I walked into this party venue. I am also finding such beautiful party venues Houston TX for this year’s Christmas party.
